Abstract

With the increasing availability of mobile devices, mobile ad hoc networks become a hot research topic. They are characterized by not having a fixed infrastrueture — all nodes are potentially mobile. Moreover, we assume that these mobile nodes can provide services to other nodes in a mobile ad hoc network. This results in Services being mobile and, consequently, requires a coneept for service awareness.. Mobile nodes need to gain knowledge about the services that are available and need to select a proper Service provider out of the list of available providers. We present a concept of service awareness that explicitly copes with the high dynamics in mobile ad hoc networks.
